This study investigated the impact of the educational complexes method on developing cognitive motivation among students, specifically aiming to show improvements in the experimental group's post-test results. An experimental methodology was employed, chosen for its effectiveness in controlling independent variables and accurately measuring their influence on dependent variables. The research sample comprised 86 second-year students from the Faculty of Physical Education and Sports Sciences at Al-Maaref University for the 2024-2025 academic year, selected via purposive sampling. The study focused on two crucial handball skills: dribbling and shooting. Data were collected using a cognitive motivation scale questionnaire, a skill test around a rectangular field, and a shooting accuracy test. Following pre-tests and the main experimental intervention, post-tests for skill and cognitive motivation were administered. Analysis of the data (Tables 1, 2, and 3) revealed a noticeable improvement in learning levels for both cognitive motivation and handball skills across both the experimental and control groups when comparing pre-test to post-test results. The findings conclude that the educational complexes method effectively increases students' cognitive motivation and significantly enhances the learning process for handball dribbling and shooting skills.
